Factory Chokes for large steel shot.

[hunter1]

Anyone shoot large steel shot like T or BBB with the factory chokes. If so which choke do you use?

Modified (M)

But I have found that Extended tubes provide fuller paterns (LM), (M) and (IM).

tj.........When you say "extended tubes", I assume you mean after-market tubes like Briley,etc........is that correct? Aren't the Criochokes that come with the gun just as good? Thanks!

by extended i mean tubes that extend beyond the muzzle of the barrel.

when it comes to aftermarket tubes, i am a big fan of briley's extended tubes.

only the new benellis (SBEII, M2, ect) have the new crio systems and yes they have been lengthened inside the muzzle so it is a similar consept. there are also exteneded tubes for the crio systems which, in theory, would produce even better patterns with steel but yet to see any tests.

hope it helps

tj........I recently got a Briley extended choke [modified/Camo] for my new M2 . Beautiful patterns at 40 yards with #2 Hevi-shot. Can't say its really that much better than the Crio mod choke that came with the gun however! One caution........Remember how Beretta and Benelli chokes were always interchangable?.......No more, with the new generation of Benelli's. The threads are different.

I have looked all over for the extended choke for my SBE 11 but can`t find them.Where do you go to find them(briley`s).

Ace - I think you may have just saved me some grief. Just this eveing I ordered a Pattern Master tube from Cabelas for my new SBEII.
If I'm understanding you correctly, the tube Cabelas lists for Benelli will not fit the SBEII.
Is this correct?

Briley is making tubes for the SBE II with the Crio. I have 3 of them. They are special order right now. Call Briley direct, and order from them. My tubes were here within 4 days. Great Customer Service.

SRM is also making their Terror Tubes for the SBE II. I would suggest the .675 if you go with them

I do not know about WW, PM, Trulock, Gold or others.

I'm sure other memebers can fill in the blanks.
Hope this helps.
